About the winery

The grapes for this wine are picked from a solitary estate vineyard from our Roennfeldt Road property at Marananga close to Greenock, and are around 80 years old. The vines crop at 1.5 to 2.0 tons every acre of land and as with all our vineyards the grapes are picked and kept separate to deliver a solitary estate wine. They are singled out phenological readiness and flavor at a baume scope of 14 to 16º. This baume here and there creates a characteristically happening high liquor, despite the fact that this will rely upon occasional conditions.
The grapes are fermented in vast, shallow open fermenters, pumped over, chilled and squeezed through a basket press. The free run and pressings are kept separate through development and mixed back together one week prior to packaging. The wine is racked into barrel to experience regular MLF. The oak is all French shaved out prepared second-hand hogsheads, with the better barrels being utilized for the pressings. The wine is left to develop in barrels for an aggregate of 12 to 15 months and is typically not sifted or fined preceding packaging.
